Jo Lemaire + Flouze - Je Suis Venue Te Dire Que Je M'en Vais - Synthpop French 80's

[Kevin00405]

And for those wondering where Namur is... it's in Belgium, so yes, Jo Lemaire is a Belgian miracle :)

[TonyMcism]

Brilliant!

[chti59]

80' for ever !

[chti59]

non non, reste joe ! 

[JeanPhivdH]

j'adore la variation 'personne ne m'aime' ....

[diether81]

Merci Serge Gainsbourg

[fognadicalcutta]

Jo Lemaire : pure gold.... (j'adore)

[mypascale99]

Supernummer uit België. Heerlijk om op de autobahn in Duitsland, bij 170 km'h

proberen te vertalen met mijn schoolfrans...

[diether81]

@mypascale99 Mooi je gevoelens vertaald man !!!!!!!!!!

[likabikalot]

belgium. i love and your prom music!

[robokopo]

Cette chanson est merveilleuse!

[TheAaron4076]

Wow love this song...

[likabikalot]

Ahh... the 80's. Thanks for this post jamycorr.

[ronaldvanderkleij]

francais mais non belqique et je voire Jo l. in 1983 de Rotterdam. Cest magnifique. Beaucoup de memories de temp. Et mon francais est terrible. Sil vous plait.

[rollendestenen63]

wat beeldt verlangen meer dan de franse taal met een fluwelen melodie

[sanbre1967]

@rollendestenen63

Mooi gezegd.....

[moonriver70]

super romantisch 

[YvanJules]

j'adoooooooooooore , lol le guitariste est le frère jumeau de Ron Weasley ^^

[Davidorfull]

Le bassiste est tout simplement fabuleux, aussi les claviers et le batteur. Enfin c'est en play back car il y a une deuxieme voix derriere la voix de Jo Lemaire, qui est la voix de Jo Lemaire herself!!!

[collagan114]

please try translate this word "tegire" into English

If you do you'll understand my comment!!

日本語に訳すと“私は君から去るよといいに来た”！！！！

[collagan114]

I don't understand your comment

Are you ok?M!!!Take care of your self!!!!!

[collagan114]

je ne comprends pas du tout !!! je n'ai pas une liaison d'amité

avec vous!!!

je me demande pourquoi que le titre japonais de cette chanson"手ぎれ”

j’aime l’écouter longtemps

[collagan114]

IL y a longtemps que je me demande!!!

Le titre japonais de cette chanson ''手ぎれ"

On peut dire ça en français"la séparation"!!!!!!!

[XtOfje]

@collagan114 "I came towards you to say that I'm leaving you"... how nice ;-)

[MorbidMayem]

@XtOfje "i came to tell you that i'm leaving" is, in my opinion, a better translation

[XtOfje]

@MorbidMayem of course you are right, but I did it rather on purpose because in french the coming and the leaving sounds so dramatic and so melancholic that I wanted to emphasize it all a liitle bit - too much ;-). And also in japanese they have a way of playing with words: they would say for instance "white snow is falling" (a simple example).

But if people are looking for a more correct translation then you are right!

[marciegl11]

This is the French version of a popular POP song in France, with my best guess will merge into the U.S., in english soon. Just like Lady GaGa has. An very successfully.

[bumblebert]

love this version! Merci!x

[biri21071954]

Great song & performance, never lost his meaning.

[SenorBolano]

Belgian 80s topquality!

[chris0706]

Splendide reprise, que j'écoutais déjà ado, au début des eighties, âge d'or du rock new wave...

[medium7h7avare]

the belgians BITE

if u take their

citizen

for french

indeed very

nationalistic...

[dumdum5]

@medium7h7avare you are right! and they don't like french people so much as well

[kon3piu]

i can't understand any word that she said, but, i love the rythm XD

[toyotalover4ever]

@kon3piu

Je suis venue te dire que je m'en

vai, means, I came to tell that I leave, very very nice song, reminds me to the 90's

[SenorBolano]

Idd Belgium TopQuality! 80s rules!

[Jarren202]

Beautiful song.

[MorbidMayem]

The lower "string" synth sounds really false... was this on purpose? 

[vrembrand]

@MorbidMayem

[briefcasemanx]

@MorbidMayem as in not like real strings? Yes. Doesn't mean it doesn't sound awesome. Appreciate it for what it is, instead of using your preconceptions of what "strings" should sound like.

[MorbidMayem]

@briefcasemanx which preconceptions? tell me, i'm curious.

[briefcasemanx]

@MorbidMayem

Well, for one. I'm a naked-ass bitch. For two, could you make me hashbrowns?

[XtOfje]

@MorbidMayem it sounds nostalgic if you ask me... so yes it's on purpose. If you understand french you will hear that it suits the song and the sound perfectly!!

[MorbidMayem]

@XtOfje I don't question the fact it sounds nice, I like this version. :)

[roberthvalera]

who cares all 80s synths are awesome anyways

[iWearLacoste]

@MorbidMayem Most likely on purpose. The whole point of synths is that they are not confined to the sounds of traditional instruments. People were free to experiment.

[SaraVaughanfan]

Ik vind de originele versie zoveel emotioneler en mooier... Dit klinkt zo steriel en gevoelloos.

[robertvanes]

Ik was deze plaat een beetje vergeten tot ik hem met toeval tegen kwam, echt zo lekker zwoel nr heerlijke 80's plaat thanks for this upload

[nameofumbers]

Me trae mucha nostalgia es un tema que uno de mis hermanos tenía grabado en un audio cassette de chromo que rescato de un cd recopilatorio pero no sabia quien cantaba ni como se llamaba el tema es impresionante que alguien tenga este video muchas felicidades y gracias por subir este video!!!!!!!

[ideagirlconsulting]

great

[vandenbee]

mmmm I like this, love it..

[Tekstyler]

Can somebody upload other tracks of their LP "Pigmy World"?

I mean tracks like "Voices In The Silence".

[letthebeastgo1]

Als het bijna 'af' is met uw lief en ze draaien dit op een fuif...Na bijna 30 jaar blijft het sterk - en lijkt het of het gisteren was .Sterk van Jo/mooi van Serge...

[Davidorfull]

@ Ladyscarlet. You have to take in consideration that the French Imperialists, who had an Empire from North Africa to Vietnam, they like to make fun of the Frenchspeaking from Belgium, Canada and Switzerland. The same way you can't say to a Chinese or a Korean that he is a Jap, because of the horrors the Japs did during WW II, you can't say that Jo Lemaire is French, she doesn't have the French nationality. She is proud to be a Belgian . Like Jacques Brel, who was not French.

[MissChris6701]

Jo lemaire's from Belgian, Gembloux to be precise !

[donnecoeur]

Better then Gainsbourg's original with that beat, and she gives it soul.

[corrine2207]

mon ex mari en 1982 ma fait écouter ce song ,j étais hyper triste,mais c était la bonne solution!!!car today je suis plus ou moins heureuse lol

[deuchevauman]

Epaté par la superbe reprise de sa chanson par Jo Lemaire, Gainsbourg lui proposé de lui faire un album...Elle a refusé, cette conne !

[arnaudbleu]

@deuchevauman Les albums réalisés par Gainsbourg pour des tiers n'ont pas toujours été des réussites. Elle appréciait peut-être la chanson mais pas son compositeur...on ne connait pas toute la vérité ;)

[deuchevauman]

@arnaudbleu Gainsbourg a commis, certes, quelques disques négativement surprenants mais il a écrit (surtout pour Jane, il est vrai) de véritables bijoux...Je reste persuadé que la carrière de Jo Lemaire aurait été toute autre si elle avait daigné écouter ou lire ce que Gainsbourg lui proposait...

[mll3klo]

:O Ron Weasley à la guitarre

[RadioMaFFia]

I was looking for almost 30 years for this song. Then I heard it on a mw radiostation.

Quickly grabbed my voicerecorder and then afterwards used Track ID from my old Sony Ericsson W960I and transfered a sample and finally found it! Great song, I like "Lio - Amoureux Solitaires" and is given me that same French eighty feeling!

[Dickgoodbody]

Luv this track... there's another version of this that's featured on the "Bel 80" dvd, also worth hunting out... but Jo Lemaire is an absolute darling... such a nice voice!

[wiseguysdeniro]

very good song 80s ı mıss ıt

[BEN0242]

I was sixteen or so and fell in love with Jo Lemaire....

[bluepuppydan]

This is incredible - i am constantly looking for french and and italo synth music from the early 80's. This is beautiful......

[Jarren202]

@bluepuppydan Have you heard 1000 Ohm - A.G.N.E.S.? If you like early 80's european synth music you should love it! :)

[bluepuppydan]

@Jarren202 Thank you, i will have to check it out. i have the 12in. single of the claim by them- which i love- goes great with my german and italo songs.

[muziekbericht]

luister als je verliefd bent.......maakt je helemaal gek

Prachtig

[Sarahlapoison]

poor Gainsbourg !!! she sucks really bad drunk as shit I can sing better lol lol

[MrDidijane]

@Sarahlapoison tu n'y connais rien ,for me one of the most beautiful and sensuel interpretation....

[arnaudbleu]

@Sarahlapoison Son chant "parlé" dans lequel il excelle est plus lié à la rythmique des mots et à la poésie qu'à la performance lyrique. Il n'était pas un "sportif" de la voix, celle-ci s'étant malheureusement dégradée durant sa période Gainsbarre.

[Tieper]

Van een stuitend hoge kwaliteit. Het nummer is voortreffelijk, en de interpretatie van Jo L. maakt het helemaal schitterend.

[watoowatootheband]

Je ne savais pas qu'il existait une version télé de cette émouvante reprise!

[MrDribblery]

Magical!

[commetuveux1]

magic

[snuffelbaarsje]

Die "zeurende" synthesizer er door heen, dat maakt deze plaat zo super gaaf :DD

De eerste keer dat ik hem hoorde was ik geheel gecharmeerd, na al die jaren is het nog steeds een van mijn favorieten, als het niet DE favoriete song is...super !!!

[reminiscent83]

Het mooiste liedje ALLER TIJDEN.

Met die synthesizer die telkens een octaaf naar omhoog en naar omlaag gaat.

Ongelofelijk.

[bartwim]

Vond het toen al prachtig...

Word er nog steeds stil van.

[moetiemaes]

Als ge dat maar weet,gewoon prachtig

[SynthWho]

This is amazing! So beautiful...

[Davidorfull]

BELGE JO LEMAIRE NOT FRENCH

[jamycorr]

"Synthpop version of the original music of FRENCH SINGER SERGE GAINSBOURG." [it is written in the description of video]

JO LEMAIRE IS BELGIAN... NOT FRENCH... SERGE GAINSBOURG IS FRENCH... :S

[pliplop64]

@jamycorr and she lives in bonheiden (belgium)

[Jageneau]

@pliplop64

correct! And many of her years in several places in Limburg (Belgium)

[LadyScarlet1]

@Davidorfull The language is still French.

[EbonItalo07]

Toute-a-fait, la rendition la plus sublime de Serge Gainsbourgh,chanter par Jo LeMaire

[vaartbericht]

Is dit Prachtig of ..........PRACHTIG

[bingster1978]

Prachtig !!!!!

[marinusvh]

Schitterend!!!

[suffeteun]

Erg goed.Beste belgische plaat is van Front242.

[MrPrimus1976]

@ Jamycorr, Jo Lemaire is from Belgium not from France, by the way, so was Jacques Brel!

[jamycorr]

oh man... the sing is french... the singer is belgian... I already wrote all this in the description of video ...

[knorieworiebobsnor]

@jamycorr belgium has 2 big parts, in the north part we speak dutch and in the south part we speak FRENCH, thats explains everything, no?

[superbrandie]

super mooi liedje

[vagabaquerdarocu]

what a superb rendition!

[snuffelbaarsje]

Ik ben Queen fan

Toch is de mooiste plaat ooit !

Ik weet dat het een cover is, maar toch.....

[annie709]

merci pour cette vidéo : toute ma jeunesse . C'est génial

[striemmerke1]

misschien wel een van de beste belgische platen ooit vind ik

[Lafiness]

Met in zelfde categorie "Elle adore le noir" van TC Matic als enige concurent, vind ik.

[vrachtwagen1964]

is inderdaad van Serge Gainsbourg,maar Jo Lemaire is Vlaamse,uit Kanne ,vlakbij de taalgrens.

[kittung]

Jo Lemaire is actually from Gembloux in Belgium. I've heard that one member of her band plays in another Belgian band called 'Breath of Life'.

[dustkatcha]

since i heard this in the beginning of carax' 'boy meets girl' it is burned in my mind.

[simoneta79]

i love this version...and the music backround is great...lovely......

[dazzleTV]

Et oui ...

[dimiliege]

magnifique interprétation de Jo Lemaire, très beau souvenir! Serge gainsbourg lui même avait beaucoup apprécié cette reprise à l'époque

[MrCornelius25]

a noter que Gainsbourg himself avait repris cette interprétation pour un moyen métrage, Bambou et les poupées il me semble.

J'ai toujours aimé cette version, je suis venu te dire ... me semble plus fort dit par une femme

[aflyer]

Thanks for posting this again. I orginally came across this by accident and really like this song. What is the name of the song in English? What is the song about?

[hilhorst234]

I just came to tell you I am leaving you....

[roncancio]

The translation in English will be something like: "I came to say that I am leaving".

The person wants to stop the relationship for ever.

[jamycorr]

ty for the post =)

[katjavm]

yes I know ... the song is by Serge Gainsbourg ...

[katjavm]

yes it's not French synthpop it's Belgian :-)

[jamycorr]

Jo Lemaire is Belgian... The Song is French... =)

[EbonItalo07]

Agree

[1rabidmaddog]

It seems that some of the capitalistic, copyright obsessed individuals, who have files such as this removed from Youtube, don't understand that it's really a form of free advertising which instills interest in otherwise forgotten material. I seriously doubt anyone is going to rush out and buy this music otherwise.

[farerse]

@1rabidmaddog yes they only need to see photos and name of artist! not copyrighted sound or animated images

[A550RGY]

Thank you for posting this after the other version was taken away.

[madrereus16]

this song is also in one scene from Leos Carax's Boy meets Girl... lovely song.

[marctinkelenberg]

Ha ha, very nice to see this again, I have this record on Vinyl!

[dohertykaki]

this is very pretty :-)

[DerVampyrEngel]

can't believe it this is so beautiful and sad and some corporate creep gets it taken off thanks jamycorr for putting it back on again mate

[DrHoldowicz]

Tony is back as ANTHONYM2M2 and has reuploaded this track.

[DerVampyrEngel]

Good, thank you Tony

[mondobay]

Thxs great ! and Jo Lemaire is Belgian !!!

[TheWolfThatIam]

this is het only song in french that I like

(and I don`t like french at all)

it`s great

[djbethell]

Who's that dude playing the drums? Cor!

[racheallan]

wish i could understand in english ,sounds so lovely .....

[jamycorr]

[vparadis]

Sinistro, nunca tinha ouvido falar desse cover. Boa postagem!

[jamycorr]

muitissimo obrigado pelo comentario... realmente... essa versao eh maravilhosa especialmente para os amantes das musicas dos anos 80 =)

[ludo281160]

Dit is echt heel mooi, 1981 c'est vraiment magique cette chanson.... Jo Lemaire est/a toujours été une chanseuse classique avec l'accent sur...culturel avec la grande C! Merci beaucoup pour partager!

[Dekiekkepreuten]

its "i'm in love with a german film star" and its the passions

[okkiejam]

oooooo nu hoor ik waar sebastien tellier de sound van heeft :)

[sponooch]
